Seat belt

Includes ribbons, braids, seat belts, and furniture webbing. 

Exceptions to the preceding requirements would apply where explosionproof equipment is needed building ceiling heights are such that the standard 3.7-m (12-ft) lift is all that wih ever be needed and loads will never exceed 1 to 1.5 tons. Safety requirements for lift trucks are mandated by OSHA, by NIOSH (National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health), by State Depts. of Labor, and often by individual company standards. Among these requirements are backup-movement signals, seat belts, overhead framework for pro-... 

In Western Europe the largest user is the vehicle construction industry where ABS has been used for fascia panels, door covers, door handles, radiator grilles, ventilation system components, heater housings, seat belt fastenings, console panels, loudspeaker housings, interior trim and other uses. For some years there was extensive use of electroplated ABS. Whilst this continues to be used for nameplates, reflectors and other parts where a bright reflecting surface is a requirement, it has tended to fall out of favour simply for decoration.

Nylons have a variety of uses ranging from tire cord to carpet to hosiery. The most important application is cord followed by apparel. Nylon staple and filaments are extensively used in the carpet industry. Nylon fiber is also used for a variety of other articles such as seat belts, monofilament finishes, and knitwear. Because of its high tenacity and elasticity, it is a valuable fiber for ropes, parachutes, and underwear. 

Worldwide traffic fatahties have increased due to the motorization juggernaut sweeping the Brazil, Russia, India, and China (BRIC) economies and other countries. Traffic accidents can only be reduced by the concerted efforts of people, cars, and society as a whole. The introduction of seat belts had a positive impact on lowering passenger fatalities and the introduction of air bags among other safety developments in motor cars is expected to reduce this further. 

True. Many countries exempt certain people with certain medical conditions from the need to wear a seat belt in a car. Generally, however, most countries require the driver and passengers to wear correctly fitted seat belts. 

False. If a bus or coach is involved in an accident, passengers can get thrown around violently inside the vehicle. They can even be thrown out of the vehicle. If seat belts are fitted they should always be worn. 

ZO. It is not necessar>( to wear a seat belt when trave lin9 b l bus or coach because the f are so safe. ... 

False. In the UK children under the age of 12 years, or below 135 cm in height, must be seated in an appropriate seat and wear an appropriate seat harness. A child over three years of age may travel unrestrained in the back of a car in which rear seat belts are not required to be fitted. In the USA, age limits for seat belt use vary between states. 

Z. Trains are so safe that seat belts are not needed. 

True. A correctly worn seat belt will, in the event of an accident, prevent you being thrown violently forward or to the side resulting in a potentially life-threatening impact with the interior of the car.

Risk is defined as a measure of human injury, environmental damage, or economic loss in terms of both the incident likelihood (probability) and the magnitude of the loss or injury (consequence) (AICHE/CCPS, Guidelines for Chemical Process Quantitative Risk Analysis, 2d ed., American Institute of Chemical Engineers, New York, 2000, pp. 5-6). It is important that both likelihood and consequence be included in risk. For instance, seat belt use is based on a reduction in the consequences of an accident. However, many people argue against seat belts based on probabilities, which is an incorrect application of the risk concept.

Each Company Member Each member of the company should check his or her assigned riding position to ensure that all safety equipment, such as the seat belt, is in place and operating properly. Any discrepancies will be reported to the assigned officer. 

An extreme example illustrates the underlying analytic methods. Suppose Congress decided that people were needlessly killed and injured in the 1940s and 1950s because automobiles lacked seat belts. To remedy this. Congress made all firms connected with automobile manufacture strictly liable for those past deaths and injuries, and judges ruled that insurance companies are liable for claims made under this "new" law. 

Firms often have a hard time convincing consumers to "purchase" safety, even at low marginal costs. Ford introduced seat belts as part of a safety options package in their 1956 model-year cars and based their marketing on safety. Chevrolet, with its emphasis on jazzy wheels and V-8 engines, soundly beat Ford that year, and Ford quickly returned to seUing "hot" cars (lacocca 1984, 296-97). 

The most recent PET imaging studies are already questioning these early findings. Fasten your seat belts, there is an area of scientific turbulence ahead ... 

In 2000 nylon-6 fibers (including monofilament) consumed 74% of the caprolactam for textile, industrial (i.e., tire cords, seat belts, and fishing line) and carpet yams. Engineering resins and film consumed the other 26% of the production265 267. 

Because of its properties, SINCO is suitable for personal protection in passive safety systems in motor vehicles. In addition to the use of SINCO in pressure elements for seat-belt tensioners or lock tensioners, the gas mixture is also suitable for driver and passenger gas generators. In this case the mixture also performs the function of a booster charge in the igniter elements of the gas generators in addition to the main task of gas evolution. 

The authors have participated in safety evaluations of imported air bags and seat belt tensioners and have acquired some experience in evaluating these devices. The authors conducted a safety evaluation of the gas generator used for seat belt tensioners developed by Pyro Safety Device Corp., cooperating with engineers from this corporation. The results of this evaluation are presented here, with the kind permission of the corporation.
